sounds more like a messed up update than a bug.
Have you tried repairing the game through Origin yet ?
Good Luck

Sorry, I actually had no idea there was a distinction between those two things and didn't know repairing was an option.
But I have repaired it now and then used some of your instructions from other threads to resolve some other issues that the repair caused and now it is all back to normal. Thank you so much!

glad that solved your issue.
If something is missing that was there before, it's always good to do a repair as troubleshooting.
Good Luck

Thank you for that tip as I was shocked the base game worlds had gone. My main families reside there.
Phew. Big thanks!
